Your opinion matters

We've listened to your opinions from previous surveys and taken your input on board. With your feedback, we've done big and small things to enhance your experience of using the Library.In 2015, you said:

"Matheson Library needs to have a re-layout, too many study desks are in one place so study areas are always prone to noise. Also all the libraries are severely lacking in group study rooms, especially with AV equipment."

"I am looking forward to the redevelopment of Caulfield Library, it's pretty overdue. The study facilities of the library (desks, computers, capacity) is the main frustration."

"Merge the lab printing and online payment with the library system."

"Another thing that should really be improved is being able to print directly from our laptops to the print station..."

What we have done:

In the Matheson Library, different types of spaces cater for a range of study styles, from quiet to collaborative group work. There are 22 bookable discussion rooms fitted with plug-and-play technology for devices and screens. Seating capacity has increased by 25% to 1,620 seats.

In the new Caulfield Library, an open plan has created more study spaces that suit different needs, with 7 bookable technology-rich discussion rooms and an abundance of large tables with screens to share for group work. Seating capacity has doubled to 1,500 seats.

With the rollout of single Monash UniPrint system, there is now one printing system at the libraries and computer labs. Wireless printing in the libraries can also be enabled by students.
